Don't think Macsood Ebrahim ever played international cricket.

My guess: Babu Meman's son?

Right again, Iqbal Meman, son of Mohammed Ahmed "Babu" Meman

He looks very familiar. But somehow can't come up with the name. Is he Ujesh Ranchod?

No.

A clue: He played for the full national side, but not ODIs or tests.

Identify these guys who had decent outings for Rhodesia, given below in decreasing order of career length. All of them had decent numbers to be proud of at the end of their careers, not the usual one or two match no-names...

470. The Peter Moor lookalike:

I had earlier used the same for Townsend and Brian Barbour too...

So, the hat-trick goes for gargamel.
